Author, former Royal Canterlot Library curator, and the (retired) reviewer at One Man's Pony Ramblings.
I don't have a muse, I have a mule. Early-onset arthritis in both thumbs inspired the handle. If you like pencil art, czech out my DeviantArt page. http://wisdom-thumbs.deviantart.com/
I'm older than your average brony, but then I've always enjoyed cartoons. I'm an experienced reviewer, EqD pre-reader, and occasional author.
And all your friends will be there with smiles on their faces.
